English term or phrase: bending wave
Definition from Internat. Electrotechnical Commission:
transverse wave in a plate or bar, being a combination of compressional and shear wave

Example sentence(s):
  • Many types of sound waves, or acoustic modes, can be propagated in glass plates. The acoustic mode most efficiently excited by a finger touch is a bending wave. BNP Media
  • The goal of the Hybrid Acoustically Layered Foil (HALF) Foam concept was to excite bending waves within the plane of the foil to cause interparticle interactions thus increasing the transmission loss of the foam. 48th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC conference
  • Bending waves are important for structure born sound. Bending waves progress in walls and plates. engineeringpage.com

onda de flexión


Definition from Diccionario de electrónica...:
Ondas que se producen en una placa cuando sobre una de sus caras inciden ondas de compresión. Estas ondas se componen de ondas de compresión y ondas de cizalladura y se propagan según el plano de la estructura.

Example sentence(s):
  • Todos los cerramientos tienen un cierto grado de elasticidad, que facilita la propagación de las ondas de flexión - Nociones básicas de acústica  
  • La frecuencia para la cual la velocidad de propagación de una onda de flexión es igual a la velocidad del sonido en el aire se la denomina frecuencia crítica. - Fuentes sónoras y aislamiento  
  • ... en sólido en forma de chapa o barra las transmisiones mecánicas se transmiten en forma de ondas de flexión transversales: la propagación de la onda es perpendicular al movimiento de las partículas. - Manual para la formación de técnicos .
